      @appalling Now that you bring that up, I'm very surprised Viz hasn't licensed the Black Clover tie-ins yet since there are characters who appeared in the manga some time ago now, but were introduced in one of those novels.

      Also, is this the one the author wrote about in Neechuu's afterword? Sokushi Cheat ga Saikyou Sugite, Isekai no Yatsura ga Marude Aite ni Naranai n desu ga.

      I'm interested in it, all the same. Reading a description I could find, apparently used the surname Dannoura in another series, lol.

        Funny how only a slight difference in the setting makes such a huge difference :o This series is vaguely similar, except that instead of guy gets summoned and is the only one who didn't get powers, it's the entire class gets powers, but guy was randomly outside the teleport range and got to stay in the real world, but with powers :v

          @myskaros Pffft that sound hilarious. If there's an LN, I would be down.

            There is an LN, it's just not translated. The first chapter of the manga adaptation of it was recently scanlated though.

              Then why don't I see it on LNDB? I wouldn't normally take MAL to be faster on the uptake for any kind of novels, but regardless of whether that's usually the case (don't have enough experience), it's probably because of the manga being a thing.

              As for that manga, well, I've been steering less and less towards scanlations, but I still have to for some things at the end of the day, so depending on how soon a few more chapters are released, I might give it a go.

                Not sure why LNDB has to be the be-all-end-all of title repositories, but it certainly exists in real life. The reviews are atrocious though :v

                  @myskaros Haha, I guess I just checked there first because it generally loads stuff faster than what else I could find, but if I can see the legit Japanese name (like I would in most cases, including here), I could probably do with checking Amazon...

                  But that's kind of a shame, in a way, because I kind of expected as much from such an odd ball sounding thing, it does make me more curious.

                    @nico In looking for info on the above series, I did consistently see recommendations instead for Everyone Else is a Returnee, a Korean light novel that appears to be rather well-liked.

                      LNDB isn't actually much better than MAL. It certainly has more information regarding the entries, but it's run entirely by users submitting stuff. Honestly, I've half-abandoned it because the admin is the only one that can fix big screw ups and he's pretty much MIA.

                        This sounds like it was made for me!

                        "Summoner 's Death Game In a different world, I ignored Princess Heroine and I kissed a Female Knight! (召喚軍師のデスゲーム 異世界で、ヒロイン王女を無視して女騎士にキスした俺は)"

                        Stay losing forced lead heroine!

                        (... it's unfortunate the female knight is a blonde haired "main character" looking character though).

                                Edit: I'm an idiot for ignoring you're both talking about updated fanslations, not the updated JP language novels.

                                  @terrence They’re talking about the fan translations, not the Japanese releases. It seems no one is translating it anymore.

                                      I'm curious too. Some of the few LNs I want to buy the premium versions to support (to send a message I want more horror / mystery, though I also hope it doesn't send the "I want game adaptation novels that just retell events from the game" novels...).
